Floral Garden Party Altadena Backyard Wedding | Alida + Victor
Alida and Victor’s Altadena backyard wedding was everything a celebration should be—joyful, colorful, and filled with the kind of love that makes an entire day feel effortless. Set at the bride’s parents’ home, the event was a vibrant floral cocktail garden party, blooming with personality and thoughtful DIY touches. With a palette of emerald green and billyball yellow, towering florals, and an easygoing taco truck dinner, this wedding felt like a backyard dream brought to life.
The Charm of a Backyard Wedding
There’s something incredibly personal about a wedding held at home—especially when that home sits on a sprawling piece of land with mature trees, a wide green lawn, and panoramic views of Altadena’s hills. And especially when it’s the bride’s own childhood home, filled with memories.

Victor started his day at the local Pasadena Hotel, and Alida got ready at the family home, each surrounded by friends and pre-wedding excitement.
Altadena Backyard Wedding Ceremony
The ceremony took place in the side yard of the family home, surrounded by lush florals and the familiar trees of Alida’s childhood yard. With friends and family gathered close, the couple exchanged vows with the kind of grounded joy that only comes from knowing, without a doubt, that you’ve found your person.

As guests sipped drinks and enjoyed golden hour at this Altadena backyard wedding, I snuck way with Alida and Victor to take portraits around the property.
Outdoor Altadena Backyard Wedding Reception | Tacos, Dancing + Sparklers
After a taco dinner (always a crowd pleaser and so SoCal) and the stars appeared, the dance floor came alive. To end the night, guests lined the front of the home with sparklers, lighting the way as Alida and Victor exited into their future together.
